We decided to stay in a family run b &b this year after staying A/I in the ixia area over the past few years. Our stay at Filmar helped make this year one of our best yet in Ixia. |The rooms - basic but clean and tidy. Cleaned everyday and fresh towels . Lovely team of staff who were always smiling and chatty. |Breakfast - good range of hot and cold foods. Fresh produce and homemade constantly being replenished . |Pool - direct access to pool at neighboring hotel . The pool / area was great. Comfortable sunbeds and always able to find one . Snack bar which was reasonably priced with nice staff. |Location - right in the heart of Ixia strip and close to everything. |Value - excellent value for money. What we saved not going A/I allowed us to eat out and visit lots of new places giving us a far better holiday experience as well as supporting the lovely local businesses. |Finally a special mention for the beautiful family who run the Filmar hotel. They were all so warm and friendly. Always stopped for a chat and nothing was ever too much trouble. On leaving we were given such a nice goodbye with lovely gifts . We cannot thank you enough. Greek hospitality at its finest. |I will certainly always consider family run now over large...

Read moreExcellent hotel, John and Lisa are exceptionally friendly and welcoming and extremely helpful, cleaning staff excellent, rooms are cleaned everyday with clean towels daily. Kitchen staff also very friendly. Very good selection for breakfast, although the same food daily you can have a different breakfast daily, there is also a toastie machine. Just walking into the foyer is so relaxing with such a pleasant atmosphere. The pool is shared with the hotel next door but is less than a minute walk through the terrace of Filmar, I have attached a picture of the pool taken from our room. People who give negative feedback are unfair in my opinion, I really don't see anything to complain about, bathroom on the small side, but you don't stay in the bathroom, the rooms are spacious and very bright 😁. I will definitely be back to this hotel, I feel this hotel should be more than a 2* hotel, I was surprised to find a hair dryer in the room as I'd taken my own. Thank you to everyone at the Filmar Hotel for making our stay very pleasurable, I was sorry to leave. Just a very short walk to amenities ie beach and restaurants and gift shops,...
